When I saw that on the transcript of Foster's address my jaw dropped. I don't know what the CVB did to pull it off but even I'm impressed and excited!

TED is like the Nobel Prize/Superbowl/MTV Music Awards all rolled into one. Like the organizer said in the documentary, "It's like the party you wish you could always have." Past TED participants have been Al Gore, David Foster Wallace, Larry Brilliant (credited with ending polio), Bono, etc.,

Not only are there great ideas at TED, but there's lots of dough to make these great ideas happen.
